I've not posted anything on here for over 2 months!!!!! Oh my goodness!!
Well I fell off the wagon big time, I haven't counted any points or anything! I've still been going to WW meetings as I work there so you'd think i'd actually follow the plan but nope!! Hahah oops!
So the lbs have started to pile on after STS for a couple of months. I'm a bit gutted really, dad's wedding in 2 weeks and was hoping to have lost at least another stone grrrrr. Fast start for me for the next 2 weeks!
I feel extremely bloated and look like I have twins in my tummy! So hopefully doing fast start the next 2 weeks will really help!
Have been up to loads and loads! Finished my 1st year at uni (this is where i first started slipping off the wagon!) Went on holiday for 2 weeks to Turkey and absolutely loved it! Made some wonderful friends and had a blast! My bessie mate came over to stay from spain for 10 days and we ate everything under the sun! Plus went to the cinema about 4 times!!! Spent a few nights with my cousins in their caravan in cornwall. Spent a few nights with my bessie Angie at hers and had a lovely catch up!
And now i'm back at my uni placement, in main recovery (where patients come to be woken up after surgery) and it's not too bad, I have 1 more week before starting back in theory at uni. I'm really looking forward to seeing my friends again after having time off :)
Day off today as wasn't feeling well at all! Have to go for bridesmaid dress fitting tomorrow for the wedding, and pop down to visit my aunty, she wants me to o.k a pressie that she's bought for my dad and his soon to be mrs! Then on saturday night it's out for Dawn's hen night, we're going for dinner and then meeting up with my dad and his friends for his stag night to drink and dance the night away! The rest of the bank holiday weekend will be spent relaxing and chilling out before back to work on tues :D
Then on weds I have my first appointment with the surgeons in Taunton about my WLS. Fingers crossed i'll get a date for the pre op assessment! woo
I'm ready and raring to go for WW tomorrow, bring it on!!!
another tiring week at hospital, worked at the uni open day aswell and was great fun!!
haven't got much to write about as haven't done much other than work work work!
really enjoyed work today, scrubbed all on my own for my first laprascopic procedure and was really proud of myself!
day off tomorrow but need to go in for a bit to make up a couple of hours! grrr
weigh in today and lost 2lbs which i'm really chuffed about, i tried really hard at the beginning of the week but then started to slip so i could've done better but i'm happy with what i got! :)
I've had a VERY tiring week, lots of extra hours at the hospital to make up for being sick!!
I've really enjoyed it though, I just love my uni course/placement so so much! Even if i am knackered!!
Had yesterday off and went for lunch with my sister and a bessie mate, didn't point as it was my treat day but kinda wish i had as went to WI and 4lbs on! GRRR in all honesty i think it wasn't just from that lunch but from not eating all my points for the week!!
Also looked after my sisters puppy again, and she stayed the night with me, lovely little thing she is!! Slept pretty much all through the night, woke me twice in total, so not too bad! And we had a lovely nap together today!
Had another day off today to sort out my essay that's due in on monday! Managed to get 1136 words done out of 1500 and have now given up for the evening, will start again tomorrow morning. Really hoping I can motivate myself to do my workout dvd in the morning tomorrow aswell, i normally go food shopping with my mum on saturday mornings so I know i've got all my "low fat" and healthy stuff, but i might give it a miss so i have the house to myself to do my workout! :D
Although I am home alone on sat night as mum is out for a friends birthday so if i don't do it in the morning then i'll make sure I don't it once she's gone out!
Just going to have spaghetti on toast for tea as not in the mood for cooking tonight! And also looking for a nice recipe to make something for my sisters 21st Birthday BBQ next sunday, I was thinking of making some homemade burgers for myself and maybe some nice mini meringues with cream and fruit for everyone?? sounds nice enough!!
it's been almost a month since i last posted anything!!!
well needless to say i fell off the wagon again, but only put on 5lbs in the 7weeks that i've had off, phew
so i'm back on and hoping to lose 14lbs between now and 24th July, thats when i go on holiday for 2 weeks to turkey with my uni friend Heather :D
there is so much that has happened lately! my friends wedding was absolutely gorgeous, couldn't have had better weather and my dress went down a storm! loved it! then my friends 30th birthday was a blast! they made me a tshirt with horny holli on the back! cheeky!!!
so back to uni after the easter break, 4 weeks in theory and back to placement, new placement in the colorectal/upper gi/liver theatres and i'm absolutely loving it! fitting in nicely, the people are fab and the patients are lovely!!
had exam and presentation on monday and exam went BAD but presentation went good !! trying to start my sociology essay that has to be in on 15th june, not getting very far, and library was shut today :( gutted!
anywho, i don't really have much more to say apart from i'm well and truly back on the wagon, and bring on turkey in 7 weeks :D
I haven't posted since 24th April. Had a bit of a dark 10 days, whoops.
Have eaten EVERYTHING in sight!!
But things are starting to look up and I can see a light at the end of the tunnel!
Lots have happened and I don't really want to write it all up here! Some nice things have happened too, i've spent lots of time with a best friend of mine, and another close friend also , which has cheered me up no end!
Got a letter sat morning about the sale of my gran's house, it was all completed on 1st May and letter said as soon as they've received the funds they'll distribute it to us..... god know's how long it'll take, hopefully sooner rather than later eh :)
Was mum's birthday on saturday and we had a lovely evening up the local pub, she was thoroughly hungover sun morning!
Had a lovely trip to the beach on sunday with 2 girlies from my uni course, it was gorgeous!
So from tomorrow I'm starting the diet again, onwards and upwards, i need to sort my life and my diet out! hehe xxxxx
So I went to weigh in last night and i've put on 3lbs lol
I'm not too upset really, and feel that i should be! I have been extra yesterday and today to make up for it, so it'll be back off in no time! No more alcohol for me for a long time!!!
Today was okay, I went to uni and the lecturer told us we'd be finishing early So rather than finishing at 3.30 I was finished by 12.30!!! Woo hoo this is what I like!
Got home and my dress came for my friends wedding! I ordered a 20 and 18 and the 20 is too big woo hoo I'm not sure it's very flattering though, i will wait for mum to come home and try it on for her and see what she thinks. If anyone is interested then it looks like this...... http://www.simplybe.co.uk/productcache/DAL/BO8400/AV017JY.html.gz
I might take a photo of it on and stick it up here for some more opinions! It's a really gorgeous dress!
So plans for the weekend? Well tonight i'm going to chill and watch some tv. Then up earlyish tomorrow, do my workout dvd, go food shopping with mum and then Sky are coming to fit our Sky Plus! woooo
Then I think more chilling and maybe some revision, and making some notes about this weeks lectures.
Back to uni on monday, and then tuesday night i'm staying at one of my best mates house, Angie. She lives in Kingsbridge which is about a 45 min drive, so i stay over when I visit. It's her dad's birthday so we're getting a take away, i'm going to try and just stick to a chow mein but i'm gonna be saving points up until and after just in case. Then we shall play on the ps3 and wii and have lots of fun!
Then on weds i get my grandparents car for a week as they're going on holiday to germany to visit my aunty. Need to drop them to the train station weds afternoon and then Angie is coming to mine to stay. We're going to her works do in the evening, it's karaoke/x factor type thing! I don't want to drink but i think she'd like me to drink with her but i'm gonna explain to her that i REALLY don't want to!
Just had a shower and have gotten back into bed to write this, hehe i'm so lazy!
I have just realised it's been nearly a week since I wrote anything!!
Well what has happened with me?? After my amazing 6lbs loss I started off my new week (thurs-weds) really well, kept well within my points, didn't manage exercise though, which is a bit of a bummer! However I got to sat night and went out for a friends birthday........ I ended up drinking 1 bottle of WW wine, 1/2 bottle of normal white wine, and copious amounts of vodka! I managed to get myself thrown out of oceana! And then ended up at cuba and ride (local club//pubs) and didn't get home until 5.30am!!!
I hadn't been out in town since just before christmas so I knew I was gonna get a bit crazy but I was just out of control! Sunday I had the most AWFUL hangover and ate everything in sight! I mustve had about 60 points at least!
Started again monday and was doing well, however decided to get on the scales tues afternoon and it said i'd put the 6lbs on! ARGH!
Stayed at my friend rachel's house last night, we went for a lovely walk around Kitley House and the gardens, it's where she's getting married! It was absolutely gorgeous, until i started getting chased by about 100 midgys!! And we ended up making a mexican buffet for her kids, and needless to say I ate my weight in food :( and then to top it off we went to frankie and bennys for lunch today! whooopsee Got on the scales not long ago and said i was 4lbs heavier so jeeeeez, i hope i haven't put too much on for WI tomorrow!
After my lovely lunch with rachel today I had my appointment with my diabetic nurse. I love seeing her, she's so supportive of my weight loss and she always gives me hugs when i've lost weight! She gave me the results of my blood test and my blood sugar was......... NORMAL!!!!! She said there is a chance that i've done so well at my weight loss that I might not actually be diabetic anymore! So i'm going to have another test done in 2 months to double check but in the meantime i'm still gonna take my meds for 1 month then nothing for 1 month and then have the test! I REALLY hope i've managed to go back to being a "normal" person!
Back to uni tomorrow to see my lovely peeps, should be alright, early night though as nearly fell asleep in lectures yesterday!
I have loads more that I can write but my laptop it starting to get a bit hot now and my bessie mate has just signed on to msn so i'm gonna have a lovely chat to her. Miss her so much, but she should be visiting from spain sometime in the summer!
I've lost 6lbs! woo hoo! i'm in the 18's now! gone from 20st 7.5lbs to 18st 13.5lbs in 11 weeks
soooooo chuffed with myself, i guess the lack of easter eggs paid off :) and i've been given a new job at meeting, instead of handing out cards to people i'm now taking their money too, and for doing that i get paid a little bit too
not doing it for the money but it's a lovely little bonus to buy myself some ww goodies!
have had pasta bake for tea and some pineapple juice, and might have a ww ice cream for desert as a little treat!
i can't believe its thursday already! ive had 2 weeks off and it only feels like a week! grr well back to uni on monday, the timetable for the next 4 weeks looks boring as hell but will be nice to see everyone again and not have to get up at 7am for placement!
just painted my nails with my new barry m nail varnish, hot pink :) looks gorgeous, now just waiting for it to dry before i jump in the shower!
got a letter yesterday from weight watchers offering me 2 weeks free esource so i've signed up for it! but have to make sure i cancel it before the 2 weeks is up so i don't get charged 50 quid!!
love having the online tracker back, it's so much more easier than writing it down all the time. and easier to work out points on their points calculator!
went over my points by 0.5 yesterday which isn't bad at all, it's the first day i've been over my points for the past week, and today with all my meals planned i've used 22/28 and i might have a desert after dinner so will use some of the left over points. it's WI tonight and i know a lot of people that treat themselves after weigh in and don't point their dinner, but the way i look at it is you're then eating over your points and if you don't claw them back for the rest of the week then surely you won't actually lose anything?! i don't want to chance it to be honest!
i have a birthday night out on saturday and have bought myself a bottle of the ww rose wine, i hope it tastes nice, only 1pt per glass which is excellent! i don't have much money for sat night and it's not the drinking that i'll need the money for its all the taxi's and entrance fees! costs me £14 ish quid for taxi home, i live about 15 miles away from city centre and all my friends live in the city centre so costs me the whole lot rather than sharing the fare between friends. can't stay with anyone either so i may just get the last bus home at 11pm :( i think i'll see how it's going and maybe just not drink after my bottle of wine and save my money for taxi home hmmm i think i'll decide on the night hehehe
had a rather lazy day today, i stayed in bed all morning until mum came home for her lunch break, so i had a sandwich with her and then got dress, and tidied my room a bit, now painted my nails, have to have a quick shower, then wash dishes before mum comes home, then dry my hair before leaving for WI about 5.30
hope everyone else is having a lovely day will report back later with my WI xxx
but presentation went good 
!! trying to start my sociology essay that has to be in on 15th june, not getting very far, and library was shut today :( gutted!
